Planters can in some cases do
much in the way Of promoting small
farming, with which we believe they
are generally in favor. The territory
of many plantations may comprise
some land not suitable for sugar cul-
tivation, but which might be made to
grow other productions. Married
laborers. of a class desirable to be
encouraged to settle on the land,
might be given such plots for their
occupation as homesteads, under
agreement that if ever they were dis
possessed they should be paid for
improvements. Thus a strong in
centive would be furnished to men Of
thrifty habits to make comfortable
homes for themselves, where their
wives and children could engage in
raising food supplies and other small
industries. Their children would be
in a position to acquire habits of
domestic thrift, and have opportunity
of coming in for some of the best
positions on the plantation itself.
The planters have put themselves on
record more than once in their annual
conventions, as being in favor both
of peasant settlement and diversified
industries. 1t is to be hoped that
individually they will neglect no OPP
portunity of forwarding either of
these objects. There is no longer
any doubt that their fraternity. what
ever may have been their attitude at
any time in the past, now regard their
own interests as bound up with those
of the whole nation as a civilized
state. While some of them may not
see how the want of desirable popu-
lation can be supplied coincidently
with the demand for cheap labor, yet
all Of them probably will at this day
admit that, at least, the importation
of cheap labor must not be so indis-
criminately conducted as to lead to
the swapping Of the elements re-
CURED for the building up OF a pro
gressiye state. Whatever they can
do for encouraging the growth Of an
enlightened body polite we feel as
sured they are ready to undertake.

THERE is no need for a royal
message urging retrenchment and
economy to the present Legislature.
Those objects are imperative matters
of policy to the existing Government.
The responsible Ministers of the
Crown have initiated a measure
largely cutting off extravaganza ex-
penditures. There is little fear that
with this Assembly the policy thus
set forth will be a repetition of
the undignifed farces of 1884 and
1856. The bill in amendment of the
current Appropriation Act is printed
in our report of the Legislative
proceedings. While Its general
scope is in accordance with the
prevailing opinion of the nation,
there may be diverse views regarding
some of the details. No doubt, how
ever, can be felt that the Assembly
sill come to the consideration of the
bill with a sincere purpose of putting
an end 70 the extravaganza that has
hitherto ruled, without making the
nation liable 70 a charge of either
illiberality or injustice.

Nor much need be said in reply to
Mr.. Marques in his letter printed
elsewhere. He may be assured, how
ever, that his proposals have been re-
garded generally in the community
in the light in which we placed them.
There are many people of other
nationalities in the country-Ger-
mans. Scandinayians and probably
Americans and Englishmen-wLo
would gladly become settlers, and
have prior rights to homestead allot-
ments to Portuguese who have not
Yet arrived. 1t is absurd for Mr..
Marques to contend that there are
lands now available for settlement
sufficient for any such scheme as he
propounded. The whole tenor Of his
letter to a contemporary, others as
well as we have taken it, indicated a
desire to have the Kingdom settled
as exclusively as possible by Portu
guese. Here we have a right to take
issue with him. Regarding the mat
ter of land settlement in general, We
do not require to be impressed with
its Importance. Our views have been
frequently and widely published, and
we intend to have more to say on
future occasions.
